I'm a Cheater

Where do I begin
when I don’t want to start so I will never have see the end
I want you to hear me clearly because our love is blind
Blind to the accessories that makes your silhouette a little wider than the frame of an Adonis
Blind to the way things are and the ways in which our love is perceived
I wish people knew they were being deceived because the shallow box they’ve put us in is deeper than they can conceive
And I’ve been faithful to what we have but I want to cheat
I want to stand other the side of death clutching it’s defeat
Because I want to love you forever
I want to live beyond possibility screaming beetle juice bettle juice never saying never
But cheaters never win and I can’t pretend that I don’t know we can never be and we will never see the end
In a time where people make promises full of empty phases like til death, in sickness
They vow eternity
under God but with a quickness from day one I told you we wouldn’t see many more annual remembrances of the first time I said you had my heart
every dog has its days and although I can never earnestly give you tomorrow I gave you my all yesterday
I give you more to reflect on than many have to look forward to
Because I can’t hold you back
You’re my angel and I can’t keep you from returning to heaven
I’d rather cheat
Cheat
Standing on the other side of the odds holding its defeat
Never throwing in the towel but folding it sweat drenched and putting it back in it’s place
We never lost knowing we would finish last because we weren’t supposed to be together in the first place
We ran this race with patience
My hand in yours
Looking at each other to avoid the break up that is our love on borrowed time
No one will ever understand our journey because only we knew our destination
And had virtually the same itinerary
We’re both going places but we can’t make it to heaven, together
But I can give you forever because
I want to cheat
Standing on the other side of sin holding its defeat
Knowing lust of the flesh was never qualified to compete
Because I never loved you sexually
I read all the rules, knowing I couldn’t get around them
As I reflect we are separated because we mirror each other below the hip
Its hard for others to comprehend
But easy for us to understand
That there’s no sin in love
So instead I decided to cheat
I will see you in heaven my angel because our love was stron
g enough to know that
we could never make it to heaven together
Because we can’t cheat death
But I’d rather die once without you and see you again
Than die the thousands of deaths for trying to hold on
Because cheaters never win
